<p>[QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 5242042, member: 107016"]Interesting thing happened to me on the way to work this morning. I stopped off at the gas station to fill up the car and get a coffee. The cashier inside knows me because I go to this particular station all the time for fuel and coffee. He also knows that I look at all my change for old coins and whatnot.</p><p> </p><p>This morning he gave me an envelop full of wheat pennies and said that he had cracked open this roll of pennies earlier and noticed that all of them were wheat pennies. So he put them all inside the envelop and saved them to give to me when I stopped in next time. </p><p> </p><p>All are circulated obviously. Interesting however is they all bear the San Francisco mint mark. All 50 pennies are between 1950 and 1957, with most being 52, 53, and 54. Only about 10% of them are before and after those three years. When I get home after work tonight I'll take a closer look at them. Besides the double 1955, is there any specific year & error(s) I should be looking for?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
